|
All the old paintings on the tombs |
|
They do the sand dance don't you know |
|
If they move too quick (oh whey oh) |
|
They're falling down like a domino |
|
All the bazaar men by the Nile |
|
They got the money on a bet |
|
Gold crocodiles (oh whey oh) |
|
They snap their teeth on your cigarette |
|
Foreign types with the hookah pipes say |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh |
|
Walk like an Egyptian |
|
The blonde waitresses take their trays |
|
They spin around and they cross the floor |
|
They've got the moves (oh whey oh) |
|
You drop your drink then they bring you more |
|
All the school kids so sick of books |
|
They like the punk and the metal band |
|
When the buzzer rings (oh whey oh) |
|
They're walking like an Egyptian |
|
All the kids in the marketplace say |
|
(Repeat Chorus) |
|
Slide your feetup the street bend your back |
|
Shift your arm then pull it back |
|
let the sargent know(oh whey oh) |
|
So strike a pose on a Cadillac |
|
If you want to find all the cops |
|
They're hanging out in the donut shop |
|
They sing and dance (oh whey oh) |
|
Spin the clubs cruise down the block |
|
All the Japanese with their yen |
|
The party boys call the Kremlin |
|
And the Chinese know (oh whey oh) |
|
They walk the line like Egyptian |
|
All the cops in the donut shop say |
|
(Repeat Chorus) |
|
Walk like an Egyptian |
